I mentioned that the 'writing of a business plan' as one of the pivotal steps involved in setting up a successful business. By now you should understand the need for writing a business plan. Writing a business plan, for a traditional brick and mortar business, will probably take a lot of time. It may take up to 100 hours or even more. For obvious reasons, a new business needs to carry out a lot of research before a business plan can even be developed.

Why should you create a business plan? 1. It encourages you to think deeply about your business objectives and goals. When you create a business plan, you get to think about the short_term and long_term objectives. It also helps to develop a mission statement for your business. This helps you to remain focused as you do your business. 2. It encourages you to think about the possible problems and how to overcome them. In any business you may think about, there are always risks involved. Creating a business plan enables you to anticipate the risks that you may encounter in the process of running your business. It also makes you to think about the various ways of overcoming the problem in case it happens. That's a proven way of looking at things for you to remain in business. 3. You get a clear picture of the whole business project. The process of making a business plan makes it possible for you to focus on the nature of your business in details, to analyze your target market, to develop a marketing and operational plan and to make your financial projections. 4. You get new ideas.
